THIS IS NOT AN EXIT

Barry Lyndon.  Quite possibly the most beautifully photographed film ever.  If nothing else, the battle sequences make it worth viewing.  The use of music is exquisite.  The costumes and sets vividly recreate a lost era.  Most of the shots have the visual depth of great landscape paintings.

It is true that this film moves slowly, but back in the late 1700's, life was slower.  People traveled by horse and carriage, or on foot, and there was a great deal of formality in social interaction.  Hence, the style of the film reflects this.
Music is your best entertainment value.

I like your thinking soixante. I just recently watched Eyes Wide Shut all the way through, and I absolutely loved it. Something about the long shots, the colors, and the music really made me feel like I was immersed in a nightmare. And plus, Nicole Kidman gets naked in it more times than I can count on my fingers. boo-yah.

These are all good ideas, but I'm really high on my idea about the hooks. We can even change his name to Chest Hookwell. Maybe I should stop thinking about this...

No, because they get jealous that their hands aren't shears.

Ah, I see. That would lead to them having final cut.
